- B.US$ 568.84 billion
- C.US$ 662.19 billion
- D.US$ 309.06 billion
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is US$ 568.84 billion. Across the seven months from April to October of 2026-27, exports of goods and services together are estimated at US$ 568.84 billion, a growth of 16.66 percent. Option A, US$ 487.59 billion, is the comparable total for April to October of 2025-26 and therefore the base year figure. Option C, US$ 662.19 billion, is the import total for April to October of 2026-27; because imports are the larger of the two, the period carried a deficit rather than a surplus. Option D, US$ 309.06 billion, is only the merchandise share of exports for the same seven months, up from US$ 253.40 billion and a growth of 21.96 percent; services exports of US$ 259.78 billion make up the rest of the total.
